hi,

thanks for checking out the clip.

grasp the sparrows tail happened a few times / brush the knee /as if sealed as if closed / fist under elbow / needle at the bottom of the sea were some of them. ...

my thoughts on this clip is it was just a practice session of one aspect of push hands. nothing special.
just in case ... i am the big guy.

same questions to you?

I would need to see the clip again. But until then, I recall what seemed a calm. You didn't follow so much. If you missed an opportunity you didn't follow-through with trying to start it anyway and were there for another opportunity type-of-thing.

Hey Bruce,

No so much "Push Hands", but more "Fighting App's" base on Sword movements that you may enjoy:

nice ... it is interesting how close much of what you showed is to drilling/zuan in hsing i ... lots of common things in the "3" main internal arts.

Imperial taichi puts-up stuff and that really nice to watch, to get to see.

Answers from me answering to my questions to you, brucereiter.

You step up and immediate push-hands. Then slipping ing a punch on you you return technique. Withthat I get that neither knew what they were going to do but had ideas comeinto their head and thoughts like, Hmmm, let me trythis...

The slipped-in punch is towares the end of 24 actually--a punch with a guarding hand.

He tries to get passed your arms even two step of elbow surpressing the forearm-unsuccessful. you ac=tually read his flanking and blocked with your hip or a slight movement to place your hip in a key location in space-successful thwart.

More as I get to it, No_Know

I noticed that your stepping was careful. Not falling but stepping. No matter the forces step at even paces.deliberate muchly in control, my think
